This bird was one of my pets. He had this area in the shop and he went to and from work with me. We anyone would approach him he would say “come here”, as you know birds learn to mimic your voice and he was used to me saying that to him when I would go to him. So we had a customer Mrs. Black with a little silver poodle named Pierre and a young boy. One day as she was bringing Pierre in for grooming her little boy was standing looking at the bird and the bird said “come here”. The little boy went over to his mom and said “Mommy he wants me to go in there”, to which she answered “you can’t”. So he went back over to the bird area and again the bird said “come here”, the little boy said “I can’t”, again the bird said “come here” and the boy raised his voice and said, “my mom said I CAN’T!”. So funny! Another time when the little fella came in and said “I’m here for Pierre”, whoever was helping him in the front asked for his last name, the boy looked confused and then answered “ he’s just a little dog named Pierre, he does t have a last name”❤️.
